I am hoping some of you check out one of the albums I made last year, titled Today & The Years Gone Bye. It is instrumental with mostly pianos, flutes, strings, and guitars. I composed, arranged, & produced it but let my computer handle the skillful playing of which I do not have the manual dexterity to pull off. It has been called, "Intriguing music full of emotion." & "complex enough but also simple to get into!"
If you would listen to it and let me know what you think I would be utmost appreciative.

Today is the 5th anniversary of the first song officially recorded under the name MARS which stands for Michael Aaron Reyes Songs. Several to be MARS songs were written in March, April, & June of 2003 and Minds 1-14 contained resamplings of some tracks on Piemerican Disc (from 2002). The song Mind 7 from Minds 1-14 was the first song officially recorded to harddisk under the MARS name. I recorded it live from playing on my keyboard. I worked the song out but then ran into trouble of forgetting how to record properly on my computer to where plugged the keyboard into the computer then plugged the line out to the line in making it so I couldn't hear myself play. I ended up playing it with the wrong soundbank but I stuck with the recording anyway and mixed it up a bit. This is also why the songs on Minds 1-14 had dead air. In the case of those songs I used programs on the computer to make the music live where I could hear myself but with the jacks rerouted it caused dead air on the tracks which I think gives it a unique feel among other electronic records which are usually chrisp and clean. I also recorded cORNERED Placement, a remix of cP from Piemerican Disc & Death which was complete from June but not yet put to wav as it had appeared as a midi in my game Greedy Ghost.
Here are Egg/Muzzz's Reviews of these 3 tracks: Mind 7 is a solo piano track by MARS. After a shaky tremolo, it leaves you hanging on a faint swishing sound only to let you know a few seconds later...THE PIANO'S STILL THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! cORNERED Placement is a haunted house tune, supposedly a remix of cP from the Piemerican Disc. Brings back memories of Mario haunted houses, that it does. Death wouldn't feel completely stupid if it lived on a Turok soundtrack, even with it's blinking light piano sound at the beginning.
Mind 7 later went on to be remade for the MARS 1 year Anniversary ep Dismemories.
